Non-Geographically Bound

Though I may increasingly find my way

Quicker to awareness

On the yoga mat, the present self I arrive to

Is non-geographically bound.

This practice

Of embodied awakening

Serves to gently remind

Of my boundless nature;

This fundamental state of Being -

I am always right here.

Right now already where I am to be found.

And the self that I meet on the mat becomes me,

Becomes this self I carry off the mat, and into the world.

At times, it feels like I am wearing new skin

Greeting Sun for the first time.
